Adriatic and Aegean Journal

Places to relax and just hang out in Dubrovnik.

Outdoor restaurant near the port gate.

One of several cafes tucked inside the maze of mid-eval streets.

Unplugged cat resting in the sun.

Streets on the east side of town always had stairs.

The Onofrio fountain built in the 15th century.

Adriatic and Aegean Journal

Street scenes photographed while just wandering around the old city of Dubrovnik.

Walking along the old city walls.

Small church built right against the wall.

Some of the streets become shot tunnels near the
walls where there are stairs up to the top.

All streets running east toward the mountain end in stairs.

Another narrow street ending in a open plaza.

The main street that runs from the gate at the harbor to the north
gate on the other side of the city. Notice the shine on the marble street.

The first stop on our cruise out of Venice was Dubrovnik, Croatia.

Outside of Dubrovnik harbor.

A view of Dubrovnik showing the walls of the old city and the port.

View of the port from atop of the city walls.

Outdoor cafe on the main plaza just inside the walls.

Down one of the two large streets. There were no cars, scooters or
bicycles allowed within the old walled section of the city.
